December 9, 2013 Crumbnut

Well, we tried Cafe de Boston’s version, and now, here is the Crumb’s knockoff of the cronut, the “crumbnut”. While I was bummed out that we were only able to snag the plain version, they were out of the cream or jelly filled kinds, I still ate this pretty happily. The crumbnut was light and […]

December 5, 2013 Crumbs

I LOVE Girl Scout cookies, I wish they sold them year round. I buy boxes of them and put them in the freezer. It’s a problem…So I was excited when I walked into Crumbs and they had Girl Scout cookie cupcakes! The peanut butter cookie cupcake, better known as Do-si-dos. A side note, Girl Scout […]

I went out to dinner with an old coworker for mine. She stopped by the office to check it out and then we headed into Faneuil Halll for a bite to eat at Hillstone. Hillstone is owned by the same group that owns Houston’s. It was hard to figure out where this place lands as […]

October 30, 2013 Foumami

I introduced Foumami to my foodie coworkers, they’re hard to impress. Located on Franklin Street, Foumami is right around the corner from Equinox. The line is long but it moves pretty quickly. People here are mostly taking out, so we have no problems getting a seat. Menus are all around, so you can figure out […]

October 29, 2013 Cafe de Boston

After seeing an article in the BBJ about cronuts coming to Boston, of course we had to see what the fuss was about. When we went the first day, they didn’t have any – so we decide to get lunch instead. There are so many options here, a hot food bar, sandwiches, a salad bar etc. […]

July 15, 2013 Nebo

Nebo opened on June 20th of this year just next door to Trade. The restaurant, owned by the Pallotta sisters, Carla and Christine, was originally located in the North End before moving to the Financial District. The decor is industrial and modern, love the feel. The one downside to the open ceilings is that it can […]
